THEY DRINK ROTTEN

Rotten beer parties and goshwful booze,
These are the signs of the rotten Sig Nus

Chorus.
Oh, they drink rotten, neck rotten, rotten are they,
And rotten they'll be until Judgment day.

Perfume and powder and sissy bow ties,
These are the signs of the rotten Chi Phis.

Whiskey and gin and staggering steps
These are the signs of the rotten Sig Eps.

The is from pg 1 from The Unofficial College Song Book This book is undated [1950s], no location [internal evidence for the University of Wisconsin], no publisher.

A very rare college drinking song. Searching for "they drink rotten" I can find only one reference to this song.

Perhaps others know this song... or maybe this is a variant of a better known song with which I am unfamiliar. Any help is appreciated.
